I think you misunderstand, the pal clip is neither from Snow Producciones or Globo TV (there is no logo)

It actually is Globo TV - there was no logo on that song when it was broadcast.

Correction - there is a logo for part of the song.

The version on YouTube you pointed to is the standard copy that's been circulating for ages. It's the almost complete show in pretty rough quality.

By the way, you didn't mention ITTWWC, so does that mean that youtube clip is not from Globo TV?

That's the same rough quality uncut copy that the Crazy video on YouTube is from.

I've posted a new thread to address the issue of the existing footage:

I've got a DVD copy from what seems to be a different broadcast, then. It's these tracks:

Somebody To Love, Love Of My Life, Hammer To Fall, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Radio Ga Ga, I Want To Break Free, We Are The Champions

Sounds interesting, can you kindly upload it?

Sure thing, I'll post the DVD when I get a chance. One of you guys can ask me in a week or two if I haven't yet.


And I'm not sure where I found that track listing. This is what's actually on the DVD:

1) Love Of My Life [cut]
2) Crazy Little Thing Called Love
3) Radio Ga Ga
4) Somebody To Love
5) We Are The Champions

Thanks for the replies.
As regards the complete first night, was this ever broadcast then, or was it shown on QTV ?
I'm wondering where it came from and if there is a better copy in circulation.

I know of neither answer.

I doubt it was QTV, as the quality isn't nearly good enough. The audio is super muffled.

It came out over ten years ago.

Surely someone around here must have a better back story !

The audio doesn't sound too muffled to me on those youtube clips.
Also, the Caracas concert shown on QTV wasn't so great quality wise was it?

Ahh, way to train those bootleg ears !!

Some of the material shown on QTV wasn't the greatest quality, and it's quite feasible a full (sub par) version of Rio first night was shown at some point.
Caracas was definitely shown (without logos) in the early days.

Big thanks Chin! It's wonderful feeling to have one of my favourite gigs in better quality :) R.I.P.my previous version!

Thanks for sharing.

Somebody asked me for the ac3 audio from my DVD copy of complete first night as it sounds a LITTLE better than the common version.
It's pretty rough but does improve as it goes on, anyway here it is for anyone who's interested.
